As a last resort I may have to invest in a Time Capsule which will always be compatible with a Mac. Or is it Apple’s fault? I wonder how many Apple users use WD external hard drives for Time Machine? Good thing I use a separate Cloud storage backup. It’s now several hours later and have heard nothing. What a crock! I can’t conceive of WD, a giant in the storage industry, not having a driver to backup the latest Apple OS. Eventually I had to leave a call-back number. Sadly, I waited on hold a long time then got disconnected! I had to call back yet again and work my way up to the 2nd tier and waited on hold again. I worked my way up to 2nd tier support level in order to talk to a more tech-savvy person. No help there. I finally was told that El Capitan is not supported by my WD drive, therefore this is an issue for Apple and not their problem. I tried everything, incl running their utilities, downloading new firmware and calling WD support. Step 3 After the scan, you can check all recovered files. Step 2 Then the hard disk data recovery software will start scanning the device to searching the lost data within minutes. Select your WD hard disk which detected on the program and Next.
I have a WD My Passport For Mac external hard drive that worked fine, then I upgraded my OSX to El Capitan. Step 1 Launch Recoverit Data Recovery program.
